EU & Public Sector Advisory

Following EU accession, aid for development is financed from the EU Structural and Cohesion Funds. Accessing these funds by both public institutions and private businesses is subject to specific eligibility criteria, hence the effective use of these resources is in the national interest.

The capacity of the local authorities in terms of borrowing is limited. Their duties multiply year to year, without being complemented by similar increases in the allocated resources. Moreover, local authorities may encounter difficulties in accessing the European funds due to their limited preparation to use them efficiently.

Companies would also need to revise and adjust their activities if they want to successfully engage in doing business in the European Union.

Our first objective is to help the public and private sectors in obtaining PPP contracts. Our role consists in understanding and finding solutions to the complex problems emerging when implementing PPP projects.
